“kNow Nature” is an effort to bring together art practices from varied backgrounds with a common thread binding them. The artworks speak an organic language and engage in materials that often defy permanence. The artists perform dialogues with the ephemeral and touch upon sensitive spaces to research and visualise their relation to nature. As nature is changing, icebergs are melting and many species just disappear, the ground on which we stand seems to shift all the time. Well known and new phenomena are watched with suspicion and fear. Worldwide it is a time where the human relation to nature is questioned. Contemporary art mirrors these developments all over.
The artists participating in this show have spent years to create installations in nature that stand on these fine lines, balancing challenges offered by the sites, climates, temperatures and time zones. In MOG they bring together works that speak inherently the same language and bring to the viewer unknown ways of looking at nature.
